The bullying on these forums is concerning

Do people really get this bent out of shape over their "reputation" in an online game? This is why I don't touch RP venues anymore with a ten foot pole. Wild community.

I use to be someone who didn't care about reputation a few years ago. I did whatever I wanted, as I wanted. Said what I wanted as I felt. I was very careless and had no tact. And really it felt pretty liberating to not care about my rep. However, over time I found that it would cost me. I won't go into detail about what had happened to me because this isn't the place for it. However, I will say the outcome was that when it came to wanting to join statics, get into streaming, engage with discord communities, join FCs, or do just about anything. People didn't want to socialize with me or have anything to do with because of how I was behaving. It eventually hit me that I made some dire mistakes and should have been more mindful about my actions and behavior in the past. So yes, I can honestly say that people do worry about their reputation because depending on what you want out of life, it does matter. And you might not find out for years that you should have taken better care of it.

I can't really speak on this without knowing context. I could say it's very unfair that people are holding grudges for this long but I don't know what it is that you did. All I know is that I've made my own share of mistakes and simply switching servers alleviated those because it was an entirely new group of people. Then again, I've also had no desire to have my life under a microscope in the way streamers do so.....no money or popularity in the world would make me want to give up my privacy and the ability to make mistakes.

The drama I have seen from RP and RP adjacent communities is definitely some of the wildest I have seen in any game. Pretty fun to watch from a safe distance though.

I'm not going to read an 18 page thread of people slinging feces at each other so my solution to the problem is everyone just get along.

op, I dont know if your missing with people or not but I would like to put my input on the topic

I feel like that is the internet as a hole, it hurts and sometimes trigger my mental illness. I do wish it was diffrent, wish people could be kind and read the words and follow it without making a huge fit over it and attacking etc. Sadly the world and people will always be like that I know that I'm sure other people know that. reading the tags here like daddy issues does bother me slightly as some people really do have issues and talk about things maybe we word things horriblely or not.

that said if I have ever been really mean i'm sorry for what my alters said.

I do feel like maybe I and some others really shouldn't talk outside of friend group when it goes bad whenever we feel like we have to be defense.

i sincenrly apologize if i done anything bad

Alright who is the necromancer raising dead threads..

With a certain alt-right troll in these forums going around and spouting hurtful messages, it's really become a concerning issue once again.

Was a necro on Page 16.

Well the Op feels bullied because people does not agree with his/her/whatevers things and issues.... which make no sense at all to feel bullied about on a discussion fora.
